size 7 is a stainless steel one ,I have one and the end of the needle is
real small.

I have a set of aluminum crochet hooks from the UK with a size 7 being
fairly thick. I only use these and don't use the plastic US hooks, but
according to the conversion chart I have, a size 7 is equal to a G, or is
4.5 mm.

Hi Everyone,

Has anyone seen a size 7, on my gauge it falls between a G and H. I
don't recall ever seeing one before.

Hugs,

Nora

I have one, although it is not labelled, I figured out the size by using
my handy-dandy little knitting needle/crochet hook gauge. It is made of
ivory (I think, looks more like ivory than bone) and was inherited from
DH's grandmother.

Hi Anastasia,

Thanks for the great explanation. I'm using an H hook for the hat and
there wasn't a gauge given for it. It looks about like the pattern, the
only thing I may do is add some extra rows to make it a little longer.

Hugs,

Nora

Hi Nora

Just checked the crochet hook conversion and a 7 is a 4.5mm hook. I
know I have one and even a 7 as I got some from my aunt. I would
probably use the H as it won't make much of a different.

Here is a conversion chart. A US7 is a 4.5 mm, readily available.

Hi Stella,

That's what I thought it would be too a steel one and not one for
making the hat that Katherine did. Oh well, I'm going to use the H
hook.


Odd, my conversion chart shows that a size 7 is quite thick - thicker than
a G.

Higs,
Katherine

Higs,

Thank you for posting this, Roger! I have a conversion chart around
somewhere that I got years ago... but I think it's in hiding with some of my
pattern books. It's good to have a conversion chart handy!
